Dept of State Bureau of Democracy Human Rights and Labor DRL
DRL's goal for religious freedom in the East Asia Pacific EAP region is to promote diverse, multi-ethnic and multi-religious, and inclusive societies that respect the rights of all people.  Applications should propose specific approaches that transform the increasingly constrained environment for religious freedom which fuels intercommunal distrust, hostility, and violence. Proposals should note how they will complement existing efforts in-country by the wider NGO community. Where possible, projects should address needs in underserved regions and communities.
